Bowl Game Blogathon

In the sporting world, January 1 is really the only day that remotely rivals the first weekend of March Madness, and this year I decided to spice it up by giving my picks and keeping a blog. Welcome to the first ever Bowl Games Blogathon. Let’s begin by picking the games remaining. All the guys in my house went through the remaining games and are giving you the winners:

Wisconsin vs. Tennessee- This is the first game of the day and the one we care the most about. We are unanimous in our selection of Wisconsin, and I would add that I think they will win going away.

Arkansas vs. Missouri- Both of my boys picked Arkansas in this game, but I am going to have to pick Mizzou- in a fun game to watch.

Michigan vs. Florida- We are again split on this one, Calvin stays with the Big 10 picking Michigan, while Josh and I both pick Florida.

Texas Tech vs. Virginia- The boys both like Tech, and they are a blast to watch, but I like VA’s defense.

Illinois vs. USC- I don’t think there is anyway USC can lose, but the boys are holding the Big Ten line and picking the huge upset.

Hawaii vs. Georgia- We are a house united behind Hawaii. I fully admit this is a heart pick, but so was Boise State last year.

Oklahoma vs. West Virginia- Calvin and I both like OU, but Josh is going with West Virginia.

Virginia Tech vs. Kansas- Calvin and I go with VA Tech while Josh likes Kansas.

Ohio State vs. LSU- In the championship game we again have a split house. Calvin and I go with the OSU upset, while Josh picks LSU.
